I am having trouble with consciousness this morning. This might be because of the three times I’ve had to answer the door when I was trying to be asleep. Or it might be the painkillers. Or it might just be that the transition from the dream world to the conscious world has been more than […]

I’m starting to get better. (Yay!) Which means it’s time to get back to work. (Um…) I’ve cleared away the backlog of admin tasks. (Bleh.) Which means it’s time to look at the writing. (Yay!) If only I can figure out exactly what I was doing when I got sick… (Um…) Okay. New plan:

Me: I just realised I’ve given this ship an airlock that it shouldn’t have out of existential panic and now have to figure out how to write it out. Rick: Don’t they need airlocks? Me: Ships that are meant to dock with one another should have airlocks. This ship is docking with another, hence I […]
